Air pollution is not just one of the biggest killers on the 🌎, it also cost the global economy trillions.

Arriving in Geneva for a week of global health discussions #WHA78... the atmosphere feels different this year, with disruptive politics shaping the agenda. Time to work together and keep health center stage 🌎

Do we need new antibiotics? 💊 What an #ESCMIDGlobal session with @marcmendelson.bsky.social & Evelina Taconelli. Turns out, maybe that is not the right questions to ask, because Abx are just a small part of the big package of interventions we need to fight #AMR

But also #ESCMIDGlobal proves that you can make a difference if you prioritise #genderequality... parity on panels has been achieved over the past ten years. That's a good starting point!

Stellar panel on #climatechange & infectious disease risks at #ESCMIDGlobal 🌎
Great to see an increase in climate-related discussions over the past years & further interlinkages with #AMR.
